Delicious Crêpes Recipe

🥞 Delicious Crêpes Recipe
Introduction
Crêpes are thin, soft pancakes that originated in Brittany and are now loved worldwide. They can be served sweet with fruits and chocolate or savory with cheese and ham. Their delicate texture makes them perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a light meal.
Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1½ cups milk
2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for the pan)
1 tablespoon sugar (optional, for sweet crêpes)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for sweet crêpes)
Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter
    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla until smooth. The batter should be thin and pourable.
  2. Rest the Batter
    Let the batter rest for 15–20 minutes. This helps the flour absorb the liquid and gives smoother crêpes.
  3. Heat the Pan
    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.
  4. Cook the Crêpe
    Pour about ¼ cup batter into the pan and quickly swirl the pan to spread the batter into a thin layer.
  5. Flip
    Cook for 1–2 minutes until the edges lift easily. Flip and cook the other side for about 30–40 seconds.
  6. Repeat
    Continue with the remaining batter, stacking the crêpes on a plate.
